New Year's Eve Reflections

On 9/20/16 I wrote this...
"I've been hesitant to write a new post because I didn't want to jinx myself.  But I am back and have been on track since last MAY!!!  I'm down 25 pounds and feel wonderful!

I can really say that eating clean and working out has really impacted my teaching.  I have tons more energy and think so much more clearly.

I'm not really going to update this blog too much since I'm tracking my workouts now on bodybuilding.com."

I saved it and never posted it.  In the middle of October I broke my toe.  Thus the end of my streak. I gained every pound back and am at my worst ever. 
I am glad I saved this post though, to remind myself that its not even about looks or shape, I have to keep remembering that when I am eating clean and working out I THINK BETTER and I am a better teacher.

As I get ready to start a new job in a few weeks, I need to be at my best.  I am going back to 8th grade Algebra 1 after teaching 5/6 and 3rd for the past 3.5 years. I need my brain to be as sharp as possible!

I know I can do it!  I just have to keep reminding myself of my why and its not my pant size!
